Regression analysis of correlated binary outcomes

Copula regression spline models for binary outcomes

We introduce a framework for estimating the effect that a binary treatment has on a binary outcome in the presence of unobserved confounding. The methodology is applied to a case study which uses data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey and whose aim is to estimate the effect of private health insurance on health care utilization. Unobserved confounding arises when variables which are ass...

The Analysis of Bayesian Probit Regression of Binary and Polychotomous Response Data

The goal of this study is to introduce a statistical method regarding the analysis of specific latent data for regression analysis of the discrete data and to build a relation between a probit regression model (related to the discrete response) and normal linear regression model (related to the latent data of continuous response). This method provides precise inferences on binary and multinomia...

Handling incomplete correlated continuous and binary outcomes in meta‐analysis of individual participant data

Meta-analysis of individual participant data (IPD) is increasingly utilised to improve the estimation of treatment effects, particularly among different participant subgroups. An important concern in IPD meta-analysis relates to partially or completely missing outcomes for some studies, a problem exacerbated when interest is on multiple discrete and continuous outcomes. When leveraging informat...

Wavelet Threshold Estimator of Semiparametric Regression Function with Correlated Errors

Wavelet analysis is one of the useful techniques in mathematics which is used much in statistics science recently. In this paper, in addition to introduce the wavelet transformation, the wavelet threshold estimation of semiparametric regression model with correlated errors with having Gaussian distribution is determined and the convergence ratio of estimator computed. To evaluate the wavelet th...
